Exposing him to a quick player on his debut against Lincoln was totally unfair.

Eh?

16 points.

A little surprised at this given his form over the last month has not been good, his decision making been pretty woeful. Hopefully our new coaches can improve him. 

Maybe the call-up will help his confidence. I know he is our top scorer with 4, but he probably should have had 8 with some of the clear-cut chances he has missed, none more-so that the open goal chance against Sheff Weds.

 

Mr Negative speaks.

Don't think anyone comes in until the international break personally.

It's a vigorous process we're going through

If its the usual BCFC vigorous, the new coach will be in at about new years day.

Nothing on the OS...........

Fleming making attacking changes that I am sure his predecessor would not have made

Except that it was a regular occurrence for NP to change the front three, at about 60 mins.

Correct, you have no idea. Who has said we're playing tika-taka?

No, that was just the driver.

Vyner, Tanner and James all fit to start today? I wonder who approved that

Just think, if Nige had got 2 or 3 free agents in as well we wouldn't have to put those pesky youngsters on the bench.

Certainly not: financially sound, thriving academy, great stadium and training ground, decent squad when fit

Shit management.

Lampard might be a refreshing change as we would actually get some media attention for once. In a field of Joe average candidates it’s hard to get excited about any of them unless our wonderful owners pull an unexpected rabbit out of the hat.

Sky bet have the rabbit at 2/1 on.

Just to look at this from a different angle -

Previous Manager had to deal with a horrendous injury crisis, Rolls and the medical team blamed by just about everybody.

NP brings in his own "elite" medical team, injury pile up is at least as bad if not worse than before but not their fault.

Truth somewhere in the middle would be my guess.

As has been repeatedly stated, one set of injuries  were caused by in game contact the other injuries were not!

This is Dean Holden part 2 isn't it?

...Only with new super duper improved rigour.

More chance of it being Curtis Fleming & there is zero chance of him, either.

In a strange(!) way, I CAN see Curtis put in place because the decision makers will fk about so much, piss off various candidates and they'll have to keep Curtis in post.

Frank's definitely going to do what Tinnion and Junior tell him.

So now the narrative will switch from "they were sneaking around behind Pearson's back" to "they sacked him without a plan or an alternative in mind". ?

Could be both.

I got half way through and they gave up watching as almost every clip was of a player that has recently been out injured. That is of no coincidence. 

Considering the rumours going around that the club blame Pearson for the injuries then it's like they are saying "oh look, Nige has gone and now players are fit again"

Also a couple of clips of coaches 'coaching' which seemed to be an indirect dig at Pearson. 

The reality is that the next two games would have been very winnable for Nige. The injured players are on their way back and that's why they forced the gun when they did because they knew with the injured players returning then Nige would probably begin to meet the expectations set by them, and they couldn't allow that, because they they'd not have been able to get rid.

Interesting they wanted him to bring in free agents, even though injured players were getting close to return. It definitely wasn't a case of 'make a demand we know he'll refuse'.

Yep, winners and losers. 

James and King can probably start packing I would think.

Wouldn't surprise me if Mattie moved on in January anyway. He came because of Nige. Andy King, lifelong City fan so he may hang around till summer.

All this stems from the selling of alex Scott. 

Nige wanted Yates but asked for money upfront before the Scott departure so he could secure the move. Was promised money and when asked it was denied. 

Wanted another striker (langstaff, from Notts C) but was told you got two players in Bell and Conway. 

Asked to develop Conway to be sold for 20+ plus million in 2 years time. 

No interviews currently being done, what a shit show this club is. I'm beyond angry!!

Yates?

Look out for the fans chanting "We want Pearson back, we want pearson back" on Saturday along with "Sack the board, sack the board, sack the board" irrespective of how well we play against the absolutely worst team in the Championship at the moment and heaven forbid if they beat us.

 

I think a non-stop "You don't know what you're doing" would fit the bill nicely.

Unbelievable decision. I cannot find any reasoning behind it. Surely the club would have been a lot more investable with a world class manager on board. Therefore, it doesn’t even align with the nest egg conspiracy theories.

There simply has to be more to this that we know, because it makes absolutely no sense based on the facts that we know.

It's personal.
